International student weighs in after student visa applications paused
WHITE HAVEN, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — The Trump administration on Tuesday ordered a temporary pause on scheduling new student visas, and that could make a big difference in the lives of international students hoping for an education in America. Right now, it is unclear which exact type of student visas and at what level of education this could impact. But on Monday, 28/22 News visited a local international student who attends a Carbon County high school and hopes his experience could be shared by others and not taken away. 17-year-old Lucas Vasek is just focused on finishing out his finals for this year. The international student from Slovakia is studying at Weatherly Area School District, and his exchange program in the United States is soon coming to an end. 'I was surrounded by lovely people that were always trying and willing to help me with most of the things that came along with my culture exchange program,' Vasek said. His program began in September, and he says the last 10 months here in White Haven have been filled with studying, experiencing, and growing in new ways. 'I think everybody should be given the chance at least to see how it looks and how it works here,' Vasek added. Students team up with volunteers to give Scranton splash of color As of Tuesday, that might not be an option. The Trump administration is ordering embassies to stop scheduling appointments for student visas due to a social media screening expansion. There are three kinds of student visas: The F-1, M-1, and J-1. It is unclear yet which visas are being halted. 'Students are here for one reason, and that is to have the American experience, what a better way for us to share our cultures and for them to go home and tell their parents about the joy they had, so why would someone want to take that away?' International Student Exchange Area Director Bonnie told 28/22 News. Vasek came to the US through a New Jersey J-1 secondary school exchange program known as International Student Exchange (ISE), which holds a portal of more than 800 students. PA Congressman spoke to Schuylkill County business leaders about tariffs Bonnie, who wishes to only go by her first name for this report, is an NEPA area director with ISE. She set up Vasek's stay in the US. 'We haven't had to react yet, and we hope we don't have to react yet, and we just continue this for many years to come,' Bonnie explained. According to the Associated Press, the suspension is intended to be temporary and does not apply to applicants who already had scheduled their visa interviews. Vasek's glad he's already had his experience, but hopes that other students like him wishing to study in America can have a similar experience. 'The exchange program doesn't just give you that experience with people, but it gives you a life experience you will be able to use later on in real life,' Vasek stated. The pause will last 'until further guidance' is issued in the next few days. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

AMAT and AVGO settled May higher nine times over the last decade, averaging 6.3% and 7.2% gains, respectively. AMAT was last seen trading near breakeven at $150.77, and carries a 21.9% year-over-year deficit. just bounced off an April 4, 52-week low of $123.95, however, to conquer support at the 20-day moving average -- a trendline that is containing today's pullback. Meanwhile, AVGO has already started its May ascent, up 3.8% to trade at $199.81 -- its highest level since March -- amid from Meta Platforms (META) and Microsoft (MSFT).

This means an unwinding of pessimism could create additional tailwinds for in the weeks ahead.

The move follows a previous announcement where Ferrari Logistics DMCC was appointed as the official custodian for the metal reserves, which have an opening valuation of USD 3.6B. Fayafi Investment SPV has innovated the securitization of isotope copper, an extremely rare metal with exceptional strategic applications in medicine, science and quantum computing. The SPV has launched Euroclear security certificates registered on the SIX Swiss Exchange backed by its isotope copper reserves. On February 14th 2025, USD 1.44B worth of these certificates were made available for trading to sophisticated investors at USD 100 per certificate. By market close at 4 pm European time the same day, Fayafi Investment Holding had successfully executed trades worth USD 600 million for its certificates. ISE's appointment as auditor ensures independent verification, strict compliance, and financial integrity, further strengthening investor confidence. It highlights Fayafi's alignment with Swiss auditing standards, widely regarded as the gold standard in financial oversight. As part of its audit function, ISE will conduct independent quarterly stock-taking of Fayafi's isotope copper to ensure accurate valuation and verification of the physical holdings. The first quarterly audit will commence February 28th, 2025. The process is carried out entirely independently from Fayafi's custodian Ferrari Logistics DMCC, to maintain full transparency. The separation between custody and audit guarantees a fully independent verification of inventory levels, reinforcing investor trust and corporate accountability. "The appointment of ISE as our official auditor reflects Fayafi's commitment to Swiss-standard financial governance and market leadership in isotope copper. By maintaining a fully independent auditing and stock-taking process, we ensure the highest level of transparency and trust for our investors and regulatory bodies," said Patrick Pilati, Executive President of Fayafi Investment Holding Limited. The audit also fulfils a mandatory requirement by the SIX Swiss Exchange, ensuring full compliance with Swiss financial regulations and reinforcing Fayafi's standing as a publicly traded entity in Switzerland. "Compliance with the SIX Swiss Exchange requirements further solidifies our position as a trusted regulated entity in the global strategic commodities market. The fact that the audit is funded directly by the securities certificates listed on SIX guarantees absolute independence in this process," Pilati added. Founded in 2008, ISE is a globally recognized auditing and research institution specializing in the evaluation and assurance of high-value strategic assets in regulated markets. Fayafi Investment Holding is an Emirati-founded Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) headquartered in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
